Bare Hawthorn Hedge
Hi, i have a 25m long by 8ft hight hawthorn hedge which looks very old, my problem is that parts are very bare and from the ground to about 600mm high there is not much hedge at all just trunks. Also im next to a road and you can see right through the hedge most of the year, my question is what can i do to fix this, i dont want to take it down so is there some sort of evergreeen hedge i could plant in between? Any suggestions would be helpfull.
thanks mark |
How about some laurel hedging if you really want evergreen... or perhaps just add some more British native plants for a native hedge which although it would not be evergreen would be much thicker.

I agree. I used to have a hedge that was mixed hawthorn and beech in my front garden, and Janet is right. The beech held on to its dead leaves right through the winter so it still worked as screening.
